Bandsaw Box Attempt!

This is my first attempt at a bandsaw box, not real sure what it looks like! Someone told me the other day that it looks like the head on a gremlin! It was a project for my wife and she came up with the design. It is made from a buddys old cedar fence that he tore down. The pulls are some scrap maple and bloodwood that I had laying around. Didn’t want to spend much money on materials since this was a first for me. I think it turned out ok other that the drawers are rather small and not real practical. I want to flock the inside of the drawers and the bottom once I get the stuff to do it! It is finished with three coats of danish oil and four coats of Deft lacquer spray, then rubbed with clear paste wax. I can see getting addicted to making these, they are a really fun and fast project to complete and the possibilities are pretty much endless. Any constructive criticism would be very much appreciated. Thanks for looking.

Thanks for the comments guys! I agree with you guys definately an owl!Hawaiilad – The cut in for the drawers are on the bottom on the outside edge of the drawers. Sort of hard to see in the pictures, which is a good thing!

Very nice box. And, yes, you will become addicted to this style. Ask your wife for more great designs.You might consider making the in-cut for the drawers from the middle inverted “V” cut with the grain along the bottom of the drawer and it should completely disappear when glued up.Keep making sawdust!
